Bringing Honey Bees Back to the Neighborhood

Urban Bee Dude helps homeowners discover the joy of keeping honey bees in small backyard spaces. From nucleus colonies to observation hives, we believe every garden is better with pollinators.

Honey bees pollinate nearly one-third of the food we eat and are vital to healthy ecosystems. A single colony can visit millions of flowers in a season.
